Thread

Don’t let people know your secrets.

Don’t let people know anything about your personal life.

Do whatever it takes to get important people on your side.

But express nil effort in doing so.

Avoid conflict with people where possible.

There’s utility in everyone,

determined by time and place.

Don’t take credit for radical changes.

Don’t take credit for “pulling strings”

Getting your way = keeping low profile.

Scenarios are rarely won through improvisation.

They are manipulated through planning and strategising before the scenario takes place.

Find people’s ego.

Then feed it to control them.

DONT inflate your credibility. Express authenticity.

DONT assume you are loved. Earn people’s love.

Do show emotions with emotional people.

Be rational with rational people.

Most powerful actions are motivated through empathy.

Generate empathy = control people’s actions.

Avoid adopting the salesperson personality.

Adapt. If you can’t fit in a culture, you will be shown the door.

Selectivity determines success in the use of dark traits.

Lie with liars. Be honest with honest people.

Apply within all contexts.

If you have a lot in common with a sociopath or someone morally compromised,

but you genuinely want what’s best for people;

you’re an integrated man.

Use of machiavellianism will provide more benefit than the use of narcissism.

Use of psychopathy will provide more benefit than both, but is inherited & requires impulse control.

Using none will provide more benefit than all, when compared to the excessive use of any.
